‘I’m an astrologer – these are the luckiest days in 2026’
Whatever your goals are for this year, there are some days that are just luckier than others. Whether you’re buying a house, a lottery ticket, or considering asking someone on a date, there are some moments when the cosmos just gives you that extra little help.
According to astrologer Joanne Jones from Trusted Psychics, some dates this year carry a stronger feeling of opportunity, alignment and positive momentum than others. She explains: “Certain zodiac seasons and lunar cycles create atmospheres that predispose us to success, connection and flow. When we plan big life steps around those windows, it means we’re working with the stars rather than against them.”
Luckiest day to get married: March 17
Joanne has identified March 17, which sits under a Pisces new moon, as the luckiest day to tie the knot. She says: “Pisces is deeply romantic, intuitive and open to soul connection. When you pair that with a New Moon, a natural moment for beginnings, you create a powerful emotional launchpad for commitment.”
Best day to buy a house: May 16
The new moon on May 16 falls right in the Taurus season, which is the time when people make choices that stick. Whether you’re signing a contract or looking to get on the housing ladder, this energy favours long-term foundations rather than quick flips.
The luckiest day to buy a lottery ticket: June 14
“It’s all about optimism,” Joanne explains. “On June 14, there’s a New Moon in Gemini, and Gemini’s curiosity and luck with serendipity can bring unexpected opportunities.”
While this doesn’t guarantee a win or instant wealth, this Gemini energy can help serendipitous choices feel less arbitrary. Joanne adds that she likes this date for speculation, creativity and moments that “feel like fate”.
The luckiest day to ask out your crush: August 12
The August 12 features a Solar Eclipse in Leo, a sign that thrives on warmth, heart, and bold expression, making the Leo season the perfect time to share your heart loudly.
And with the eclipse amplifying intentions, Joanne says that love declarations may be received with enthusiasm precisely because the sky is encouraging boldness and heartfelt gestures.
The luckiest day to propose: August 13
Just one day after the eclipse is the luckiest day to propose, the astrologer says: “Leo season is king or queen of the romantic gesture, so if you feel ready to go down on one knee, do it here. The energy supports heartfelt commitment, not just attraction.”
The luckiest day to go for a job interview: September 10
Falling near the Virgo new moon, this is a time when you’ll likely feel organised, articulate, and on point, making it the perfect time to interview for a new job as you’ll be feeling mentally sharp and can show up as your best organised self.
The luckiest day to ask for a promotion: October 8
“Career energy is strongest around October 8,” Joanne says. “Libra season brings balance and diplomacy. On this date, your ask can come from a place that feels fair, well argued and mutually beneficial, which is exactly how bosses like it.”
